Starting as a town mayor, he rose through the ranks.

Although the study on the second floor was newly moved into, Qiao Yan had already arranged for many books to be placed on the bookshelves.

Luo Zhiguo sat at his desk, racking his brains for a solution to the aloe vera problem in each village.

"Ring ring ring..."

Suddenly, his mobile phone, which was lying to the side, rang, interrupting his thoughts.

"Senior brother! Have you eaten yet? How was your first day at your new post?"

As soon as the call connected, the cheerful and pleasant voice of the virgin came through the phone.

"fine!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Zhiguo gave a wry smile and then offered a perfunctory reply.

"Senior brother! You should celebrate your new post today. I'll celebrate with you tonight..."

A virgin's voice came through.

Luo Zhiguo's mind was completely occupied with the aloe vera business in various villages; he had no mood for celebration.

Besides, I'm just a town mayor who's here to take the blame, so what's there to celebrate?

"Virgin! I'm not in the county, let's get together another time when we're free."

After thinking about it, I made up an excuse to refuse.

"Senior brother! You're definitely not in the county right now, so I've arrived in Bohou Town. I'm right in front of your Party and Government Office. Come out quickly..."

Luo Zhiguo was surprised that Tong Zhen had come to Bohou Town, and he felt a mix of amusement and exasperation.

There was nothing he could do; the person had already come to the door, so after hanging up the phone, he had no choice but to go out.

"Senior brother!"

As soon as Luo Zhiguo arrived at the gate of the Party and Government Office, he saw Tong Zhen get out of the car and wave at him.

Tonight, Virginity wore a white dress, and with her lively and adorable appearance, she gave off a girl-next-door vibe.

"Why did you come to Bohou Town?"

Approaching him, Luo Zhiguo gave a wry smile and asked.

"Let's celebrate your inauguration!"

"I love you," said the virgin, blinking her bright, lively eyes.

Luo Zhiguo felt bitter, but he couldn't tell Tong Zhen. There was nothing he could do; she had come all this way. He could only nod and get into the car.

The virgin was like a carefree, happy elf. Seeing him get into the car, she skipped and hopped to the driver's seat, opened the door, and got in as well.

Bohou Town is not far from the county seat. Ten minutes later, Tong Zhen parked the car in front of the Jinyue Hotel.

"Virgin! Let's just find a regular restaurant to eat at, why come to such a fancy place..."

Seeing that Tong Zhen had brought him to the Golden Moon Hotel, Luo Zhiguo couldn't help but feel that it was a waste.

"No way! My senior brother was promoted to town mayor today, we can't go to an ordinary restaurant."

Upon hearing this, Tong Zhen immediately looked at him seriously and said.

Luo Zhiguo looked helpless and said nothing more, so he got out of the car and followed them into the Golden Moon Hotel.

The virgin had already reserved a private room, and soon they entered. After obtaining permission, the waiter immediately brought out the food and drinks.

"Senior brother! I'd like to raise a glass to you to congratulate you on your promotion to town mayor."

Tong Zhen poured Luo Zhiguo a glass of wine first, then poured herself a glass, and then raised her glass with a smile and said.

Luo Zhiguo frowned slightly and looked at her, saying, "Virgin! You can't drink and drive. You should drink a beverage instead."

"It's okay! I've already booked a room here. I'll just go upstairs and sleep if I've had too much to drink. I won't drive."

Tong Zhen smiled and explained, which made Luo Zhiguo pause slightly. He thought to himself, "If you're sleeping here, how am I supposed to get back? I have to go to work tomorrow."

"Virgin! I have to go to work tomorrow, so let's not drink."

After thinking for a moment, he looked at Tong Zhen and said with a wry smile.

Tong Zhen sat beside him, and seeing his hesitant look, she immediately pouted and said, "Senior brother! Why do I feel like you've lost your former arrogance and become so fussy..."

Upon hearing this, Luo Zhiguo sighed slightly, thinking to himself, "If you spent a few years in a government agency, your sharp edges would be smoothed out."

However, he didn't want to tell others about his troubles, so he reluctantly raised his glass to clink with Tong Zhen's, then tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp.

The virgin smiled slightly and also tilted her head back to drink it all in one gulp, but her face immediately turned wine red, making her look even more beautiful and charming.

"Senior brother! How was your first day in office?"

The virgin picked up a piece of fish for him and then asked with a smile.

Luo Zhiguo shook his head, then poured himself a full glass of wine, downed three glasses in a row, and finally said, "A whole bunch of troubles..."

"Senior brother! The night is long, no need to rush to drink, have some food first."

Seeing him like this, Tong Zhen immediately sensed that he had something on his mind, so she put more food on his plate and gently comforted him.

Luo Zhiguo nodded, ate a few bites of food, then poured himself another glass and drank again.

After a few drinks, the alcohol kicked in, and he immediately felt very relaxed, and his mood improved a lot.

This is probably what they call drowning one's sorrows in alcohol, but he has a good tolerance for alcohol and didn't get drunk immediately.

"Senior brother! Can you tell me about the situation in Bohou Town?"

Seeing him like this, Tong Zhen felt a pang of heartache, her eyes filled with tenderness as she looked at him and asked softly.

"There's no point in telling you! You'd be better off just being happy every day as you are now..."

Luo Zhiguo waved his hand, downed another glass, and said in a deep voice.

At this moment, the alcohol was taking effect, and he felt a little dizzy and lightheaded. Tong Zhen pouted and said, "Senior brother! Life is actually not long, and there are even fewer days to cherish, so there's no need to live so hard. It's okay to indulge yourself once in a while."

Luo Zhiguo lit a cigarette, took a few puffs, exhaled a smoke ring, and said in a slightly angry voice, "The aloe vera in the villages of Bohou Town is still sitting in the fields with no one buying it. As the town mayor, what right do I have to let this go unchecked..."

The virgin didn't speak, silently listening while secretly thinking about how to help him.

"I'm going to the restroom."

After venting his frustrations, Luo Zhiguo got up and left the private room to go to the restroom.

"Hey! Auntie, do you know what aloe vera is?"

After Luo Zhiguo left, Tong Zhen took out her phone and made a call to learn about aloe vera.

"Xiao Zhen! Aloe vera is a plant with a wide range of uses. It can be used as a traditional Chinese medicine and also as a beauty product. Why are you asking these questions?"

Hearing the explanation from the other end of the phone, Tong Zhen thought for a moment and asked, "Auntie! Does the pharmaceutical factory need aloe vera?"

"Yes, we need it! But we have dedicated supply channels."

Tong Zhen's aunt is the CEO of a pharmaceutical factory in the provincial capital. Hearing this, she was a little curious, but still answered.

Upon hearing this, Tong Zhen immediately perked up and said, "Auntie! A friend of mine is the mayor of a town, and he has a lot of aloe vera. Could you do me a favor and buy some of their aloe vera?"

"You silly girl, I can help you with this, but we don't buy in large quantities here. If the production volume is large, it won't make much of a difference..."

Hearing her aunt's words, Tong Zhen was somewhat disappointed, but still said, "Aunt! Take as much as you can, I'll think of something else..."
